Description:
Calzone is unlike other pizzas in that the base is folded over the topping. This specialty means "pants", presumably because there is a resemblance. |

Preparation:
Preheat the oven to 450°F. Lightly grease a baking sheet and dust with cornmeal. On a lightly floured surface roll out the dough into a 7 inch circle. Now, using the heels of your hands and working from the center outwards, press out the circle to a diameter of about 12 inches. Transfer to the baking sheet. Brush the entire surface lightly with olive oil. Spread the onion and mozzarella over one half of the pizza dough, leaving a narrow border around the edge. Roll the half slices of Prosciutto into little tubes and place on top of the cheese. Top with the artichokes slices, and then season well. Fold the plain side of the dough over the filling to make a half moon shape. Match the cut edges and press them firmly together to seal. Fold them over and pressed into scrolled pattern to thoroughly seal in the filling. Brush the surface with a little more oil, then transfer to the oven. Bake for 20 minutes until the crust is golden. |

Notes:
About calzone: Some calzone recipes include more ricotta than any other ingredient; however, proportions are largely based on the chef's taste, so a calzone content can vary substantially from chef to chef. |
